A cure for cholera is alleged to have
been found in the cocoa plant and to
have been used with fiattering success
in Chilli and Brazil last year. 1t is not
the cocoa of commerce, but shrub
something like the laurel, the leaves Of
which are pressed into plugs and
ehewed like tobacco, with the addition
of lime or wood ashes in a little larger
proportion than salt is used with meats.
This cocoa plant, by the way, is getting
to be something of medical chestnut.
1t came into prominence a few years
ago as a nervine and as a convenient
substitute for food in certain cases. 1t
is now turned out by the manufactur-
ing pharmacists of this country in every
conceivable combination, and recon-
mended for everything from consump-
ton to corns. Then came the new
aresthetic, Cocaine" of incalculable
value to surgeons in performing opera
tions on the eye, but terrible in its
effects when used habitually as a sub
stitute for alcohol or opium. Now it is
trotted out as cure for cholera, to be
followed no doubt by recommendations
for its use in hydrophobia and yellow
fever. Taking one consideration with
another the shrub is one of the mosi
versatile vegetables known to the med
ical procession. .-
